CMA Closeup: Who's New to Watch in 2007 - Jesse and Noah
AUSTIN, Texas — Country-rock band Jesse and Noah’s second single, the rambunctious “Wild and Willin’,” will be released to radio March 5 by Smith Entertainment ahead of the April 10 street date of the band’s debut album, NOWHERE REVISITED, and the band will play a show in their second home base of Fort Worth to mark the occasion.
Jesse and Noah are among the acts cited in the February-March issue of CMA Closeup magazine as “who new to watch in 2007” for their original songs celebrating good times and bad, stunning harmonies, and sizzling instrumentation. In fact, the first single released last year from NOWHERE REVISITED, the friendly warning “Daddy’s Got a Shotgun,” got the band on The Texas Music Chart’s Top 50 of 2006.
The Fort Worth show starts at 9 p.m. Friday, March 30, at The Horseman Club, 4750 Bryant Irvin Road. Information: 817.361.6161. Micky and the Motorcars will headline.
Backing Jesse and Noah as the duo, the oldest sons of David Bellamy of The Bellamy Brothers, trade tight harmonies and guitar chord-play will be Glen Rogers on keyboards, John Laird on bass and Brad Swiger on drums.
In a full-circle moment, it turns out that Micky and Gary Braun of Micky and the Motorcars were 8 and 6 years old playing in their father’s Muzzie Braun & The Boys on an occasion when that band opened for The Bellamy Brothers.
Jesse and Noah were chosen to play Texas Rebel Radio Network’s 5th annual Windows on Texas free live music festival in January in Fredericksburg to showcase the brightest new Texas talent. After they played, KFAN Radio’s Rick Star enthused, “Man, you guys were awesome. The album is superfine, and thank you so much!
